Grammar Representations to Facilitate Style Innovation - An Example From Mobile Phone Design Previous research in generative design has suggested that shape grammar transformations could be used for developing new design styles by the systematic modification of grammars that encode existing styles. Our research explores how such grammar transformations can be facilitated to be responsive to changes in design style requirements. For this it is important to consider the structure and organization of rules, as well as the description of the styles of designs generated by a grammar.

Promise of Health for All: US Policies and Global Health Each year, inadequate health care and conditions result in millions of deaths from preventable diseases. In Africa less than ten percent of the people dying from AIDS have adequate treatment, due to a shortage of doctors and nurses. In the U.S. there are 600 doctors per 100,000 citizens; in Cuba there are 800; and in Mozambique there are two. In this lecture, University of Washington faculty explore the forces which impact our ability to provide basic health care to citizens in a global society.Author(s): No creator set
